    People who breed animals with deformities sicken me.

        That right cat’s legs are way too short, I think it’s in the breed

          It’s dwarfism, so not really a breed although they’re called munchkin cats.

            And people do try to breed them on purpose. Even though the entire litter dies if both parents have the gene.

              Absolutely, although it’s totally possible for it to happen naturally. So, not every munchkin is the result of poor breeding. But most likely are the result of inbreeding.

        Yes, there is a reason why one never sees a stray short legged cat…

        I am. If was used in the way it was bred for ,you might have an argument. But not many if any one still does. Short face is the same, just cruel. Bull dogs can’t even have sex without human influence. And give birth by C-section. Literally could not exist without humans.

          no, I mean, they have short legs. dwarfism. That’s not breeding a dog that can’t breathe or give birth and is prone to disease. it’s short legs. like a dachshund. what does them being “used” correctly have to do with it?

            Look into the breed more. Selective breeding for traits like this comes with other health issues. Barking doctor bill.
